Database Develop

Ok folks, Let's hear the stupidest questions you have read on XDA.

Since I am bored beyond wits, and was inspired by WPBears quotes at the end of his signature, I would like to hear the stupidest, most outlandish, jaw dropping, 'How could you be THAT stupid' questions you have ever read, answered, or posted on XDA...
mine isn't great, but it would have to be..
'If I SIM unlock my wizard, can I switch over to Sprint?'

i'd answered too many posts not to have to surpress most of the silly ones
but vaguely recall people asking for how to do tasks which were clearly something one just clicked on of the things present on the normal today screen menu

Hmmm... I'm sort of loathe to get involved because I'll probably find somebody's choice for stupid question is one of mine...
Al the same, it's got to be the person on the folowing thread I guess.
It wasn't the content of the question, it was that he followed this opening comment:

Thats how I meant it actually.. funny posts... not 'noob' bashing.. lol

Thanks for the edit, Mike. Genuinely meant to just retype myself the last bit, not actually use Quote function with name on, when I began that. My ineptitude knows no bounds...
Took the link off now too.
And I DO still expect to find one my own posts being quoted here.

Post your today screen (with the cab?)

I know its alot to ask concidering that there is already a "post your today screen" thread. I know im always changing my home screen, but i am always spending a heck of alot of time searching for the .cab, so i figured if it can be consolidated in one post that would make it easier for hopefully everybody.

Im using HTCPlus and GPSToday with some regular theme. Nothing too fancy. I'm waiting for spb 2.0.

can you post screen-shot with the .cabs and what not that would probably be more helpful, so people know what it will look like before they install it.
tnx.

more like too lazy to find a program that takes screen shots, install it, and upload. Its much easier to not do that. Plus I think people already know what those apps look like. by the looks of it, you didn't even post a SS or a cab. ;-)

If you have read my OP in the Post your Todayscreen topic. I have asked people to post a list of programs they use. Ans post the TSK of your background.
Nobody does it... So i don't see why it would work in this thread.
I can change the topic Title maybe

You posted the same question 11 minutes in another new thread. How about being a bit patient and allowing the clever people time to get out of bed before double posting.

You're right
You're right, I did impatiently post the same question again. It seemed that nobody was even visiting the thread, and I figured a better suited subject would draw more readers. I apologize for my impatience and will read the forums to see if there is a way to edit your post Subject.
Thanks

[Solved] Coming Soon! "Ultimate Newbie Thread"

Well for about a while now i know theres is a hella bunch of newbies have trouble
from being to lazy to search/they dont know what there doing/OMG Im stuck at bootloop nonsense,and i feel sad for them, because i use to be like them asking for help when no 1(kinda) didn't help me out so im wondering if someone wants to help me make "The Ultimate Newbie Thread"
Basically in this thread we would have everything from a-z
such as 1 click rooting
partitioning
adb
All roms and whats the best for who and what kind of person you are
which is the stablest of all cupcacke builds/Hero builds
etc..
And with this thread we would stop so many pointless threads that would get closed/locked in 2 minutes
So basically all these threads you see on this forum would be cut and pasted all in one
So yeah any contributers???
I dont want to do this alone
pm or leave a reply with what you know and how you can help me with this

here is the link to my one click root guide i have no problems with you putting it into an ultimate super-noob thread. i think all the dumbass questions popping up should make a new classification called super-noob.
requirements to be a super-noob
1. knows nothing.
2. makes a new thread asking a question that has been answered a million times.
3. will not search for an answer
4. wants to be spoonfed information so that he/she/it(lol) does not have to research or learn anything.
5. rude to people that do not spoon feed answers.

exactly david but you see sometimes im busy
on weekdays(school work)
and when something needs to be added i would let someone log on my account and edit the post
Basically what i want do is in the post is just to make it the best like
from a section about
"stuck at bootloop"
or how to backup
or how to nandroid
or whats adb
or what root
basically and info/tut/help for pretty much any situation
that you think a newb could come to like
its tell me to run swapper what do i do??

if you didn't want to compromise your actual account on xda by giving out your info you could make another account and pm the info to any of the people that would be "editors" this post. the only thing is that for someone to log into to edit it the person using it would have to log out as soon as they edit the post so that it would free it up for someone else to log in and edit it. we should see if supremeteam256 along with direct matrix and nephron would like to get in on this because they are on here a lot and help out a lot. but i would not mind being an "editor"

to be honest i wouldnt care if they used this account but
i guess ill make an account that could be shared by all us
But ill have to think of a name maybe a mixture of all ours put together
maybe supamanefavid4888
so yeah pm them ask them if they want in

ok I'll drop some pm's to nephron and supremeteam and direct matrix in a minute and see what they say. also in the post after we edit something we could put by what we edited "edited by (whichever member)"

yeah we could do that
make an account etc..
then whoever edits it
will put edited by
or we could put at the bottom of that very section
tut brought to you by: xxxxxx
or we could just make a remixed name
and in the thread will put who each part is made by

well i just sent pm's to nephron, DirectMatrix, and supremeteam256 asking if they would like to do something like this. the reason i suggested the edited by part was mainly so that the other "editors" would know what who changed.

Is there any way to re-enable live wallpapers on cognition!

Pretty good rom to be honest, but I miss the live wallpapers and I didn't notice that they were removed when I read the faq.
Is this even possible?

you never needed to. there is this little button at the top that says 'SEARCH THIS THREAD'
congratulations. you have just learned something

what bothers me the most about them post is ot only they in the wrong section but they do get answered , while some other ppl in need of advice in the proper section dont even get there answer in the same day !!!!

Yep I'm with you.
Some people need to read little more like the rest.

There needs to be a minimum number of searches done before a user can post...

Ok guys closing this up now. Please do a search instead of opening a new thread, and when you do open a new thread please make sure its in the right place.
